[QUOTE="diesel96, post: 351090, member: 9859"] Tooney, I agree with your first sentence and posters on both sides of the fence should employ wit or indirect sarcasm instead of personal attacks. Having said that, here's my beef with this post. I'm curious as to what reason some will tell their grandchildren why we HAD to go to war(in Iraq not Afgh.) Hopefully they won't tell them because of Freedom from the sneaky little Iraq'ees singing Kum ba yah songs around the campfire. As far as the troops, we should all be proud of their loyalty even under the stress and negative circumstances of our leadership and commander in chief has put them under. The question is what and who will determine how history is recorded in our grandchildren's history books. IMO the last war that actually protected our freedom was WWII, and that is even being questioned by Libertarians such as Pat Buchanen with his new book out. I'm sure there will be on going debates as to which history lessons will be published for our public schools or if the debate won't be compromised this country will support more Liberal art schools or more Jerry Fallwell-like Liberty Universitys. I know for sure which school/history lessons my grandchild will be studying, the truth. And hopefully "the truth" can be taught at any and all school levels where all can congregate without mis-representations. [/QUOTE]
